THE WOLF AND ITS YOUNG.
HOWTHB PARENT ANIMAL TRAINS
AND TEACHES ITS PUPS.
It Is a Vegetarian and by No Means
a Coward It la I'artlal to Fish
' Other recnllarltlpa.
i
The male wolf, snys a Nsvsjo (Texas)
correspondent of tho New Tork Sun,
looks after the youngster much longer
than the mother does. Hefore they aro
half grown the mother begins to wean
them, and becomes somewhat harsh.
The pups must be taught to look out for
themselves, sho thinks. The father does
not resent her harshness directly, but he
has been seen to caress tho pups nfter
they had been snarled at by the mother.
Besides that, he tenches them by exam
ple how to capture their prey. AVhen
weaning the young the mother begins to
neglect her husband as well as the pups.
She goes away by herself and stays longer
and longer with each trip, until at last
she fails to come home even at night.
The father stays by his children and
continues to feed them for a time, even
after she hns wholly deserted them, but he,
too, eventually concludes that the mother
knew better how the youngsters should
be trained than ho did, and so lets them
shift for themselves, and this they aro
able to do in this, country much better
than the settlers wish they could.
In Texas there is a bounty on wolf
scalps, and iu consequence the young are
persistently hunted by the settlers. It is
in connection with this hunting that the
wolf shows tho ouly weakness in his
character. If the hunter arrives at the
den when the wolf is not in it, ho will
have no trouble with either the mother
or the father of the pups. Even though
both parents he within sight and to
gether, they will not even snarl, let alone
attack the intruder. Mr. Mumford, a
well-known trapper and huntsman of
this country, has often captured wolves
in this way, he says, when living in
Stevens Countv, nnd has seen the parents
sit dog fashion on their haunches not a
hundred yards from the den while he
calmly carried off their progeny. Of
course, sinco there was a bounty on the
scalps of wolves, Mr. Mumford invariably
left the mother wolf alive, but shot the
dog wolf after securing the pups.
The stories of tho terrors of a wolf
attack on the steppes of Russia are
familiar to everyone. These may not
prove any courage on the part of a wolf,
for they attack then in great packs. At
tho same time there is no other animal
smaller than a lion or a tiger that makes
a practice of attacking men, even when
pressed by hunger. The yarns about
panthers doing so are founded ou moon
shine. But in Texas there arc well
authenticated cases of the great gray
wolves attacking a man when no moro
than two were hunting together, while
the black wolf found in the rocky de
files of the upper waters of the Brazos
and the forks of the Red River will
sometimes attack a ma:i single handed.
The size of these wolves is immense.
There are hides now here in this village
that measure dry over si x feet long over all.
When green they are unquestionably
found as long as seven feet. It is not un
likely that lur dealers in New York have
a few such skius now in stock, for th3
skins collected in this county are all
shipped to Hew York by the way of
Galveston. The black wolf skin is one
of the handsomest in nature, ud either
as a rug or a lap robe is a valuable fur.
Fine skins may be had in this country ut
from $1 to $2 each.
It will be interesting, no doubt, to
those who have always supposed that the
wolf was a cowardly sneak to learn that
he is not only a brave and manly sort of
a fellow, but that he is also a vegetarian.
The popular belief is that the wolf eats
meat only, venison chiefly, but consents
to take it in rabbits, prairie dogs, young
animals and bird) of all sorts, the eggs
of all birds that nest on the ground, with
an occasional taste of a frog found
hopping about. It is also said
that he esteems fish. His reputa
tion in this matter is pretty well founded.
He is as fond of venison and frogs' hind
legs as white folks are, but is, of course,
somewhat less fastidious, for he eats the
forelegs of the frogs, and, in fact, the
entire frog, as well as the hind legs.
But he eats very few deer in this country,
save fawns, for he cannot catch them.
Sometimes a pack will drive a deer into
a pond or tank of water, and will then
divide up and picket all sides of the
wutcr until the deer leaves it, and so
head him off and capture him. If the
water is deep enough the deer is sure to
lie down so that only its nose is exposed
above the water, and even that is awash.
The antics of tho wolves at thi3 time are
at once interesting and ludicrous. They
go tearing around the pond iu a gallop,
aud, gathering their legs under them at
irtervals of a few rods, leap high in air
in order to get the better view of their
prey.
But in the right season the wolf is a
pretty good vegetarian. He esteems
ripo berries of all sorts very highly, and
shows an especial fondness for ripe straw
berries. The wild grapes of this country
that grow ou vines ruuning over little
scrub plum trees, together with the
plums when fully ripe, are eaten greedily.
But the one peculiarity of his appetite that
seems incredible to those unacquainted
with the wolf is his liking for water
melons. About the first seed sowu on
the frontier is the watermelon. In no
country in the world cau more abundant
crops of melons be raised than here, and
the wolf is very glad of it. lie conies at
night, of course, and goes over the patch
carefully. He is a most excellent judge
of watermelons, always selecting the
lurgest aud ripest iu the patch. Ho
probably does this by smelling of them;
hut in any event he never touches one
not thoroughly ripe. Ho breaks open
the melon aud theu scoops out the heart
as a man would.

ME FARM AND GARDEN.
..v,, . TRY DUCKS.
I have kept both chickens and ducks,
and I would say to any one who has had
continued "bad luck" with the former,
try ducks. They are far less troublo to
raise; to far as my experience goes I
might say they are free from vermin, and
they aro free from disease. I have never
lost a duck from any causo but accident.
Ducks inatnrb earlv, growing much faster
than chickens. At about ten weeks old)
a duck will greatly outweigh a chicken I
and has cost much less to grow. Ducks 1
will get a great part of their food by for-'
aging; they will eat at most anything, !
from mud and ashes up. They begin to
lay m March, or sometimes tho latter part
of February. Besides eggs and chickens
sold, there is.a profit from tho feathers.
If you have little time, small patience,
and don't like to doctor fowls, try ducks
instead of chickens. World,
A PROFITABLE COMPOST.
My compost heap is composed of stable
and barnyard manure purchased in the
city, and hauled during the summer and,
fall. X it are added the refuse from;
the market garden, such ns potato-tops,!
vines of the bean, pea, cucumber, melon,!
and in short everything (with tho ex-
ception of ripe weeds) that would add;
to its value. Manure from my owu!
horses, cows nnd swine is added. The;
heap is occasionally watered just enough;
to keep it from burning, but not sullic-,
icntly to drain from it. Tho heap is
worked over in winter, and is in lino
condition when the time comes to use
it. Tho amount of refuse that can be'
turned to accoun1. iu such a compost is
remarkable, tho moro so as without it'
much of such material is wasted. A well
utilized compost heap should be a feature;
of every farm. Aiittrkm Agriculturist.
VAI.fE OF MACniNF.RY.
The value of farm machinery consists
in the saving of labor nnd time and the
ability to do several times as much work,
in a season as without it. By the aid of
machiney a farm of 300 or 400 acres
may be managed as easily as one of fifty
acres without it. A potato planter cuts
the seed, drops and covers it, and finishes
eight acres in a day. Acorn pluutcr
daes tho same. A gang sulky plow turns
four acres a day, ami a girl or boy can
manage it. Any of tho new harrows will
fit ten or twelve acres of stubble laud for
wheat iu a day. A seed drill sows ns
much and saves half the seed. A self
binder does tho work of four meu with
out one; a manure spreader scatters n
forty-bushel load in two minutes and
much better than ten men could do it by
hand. A potato digger turns out 600 or
700 bushels of potatoes in a day; "bug
wagon" with pump and hose sprinkles
an acre of potatoes with "bug poison"
in half nn hour. The grass seeder;
mower, horse rake, tedder, hay loader;
and horse fork reduce the cost of innk-i
ing and housing hay to less than t
dollar per ton, while the fodder-cutter ami
the silo enables the farmer to feed onij
head of stock for every acre he cultivates;
in corn. All this being so, the hand-to-,'
mouth farmer is left far behind bv his
jnore enterprising neighbor, and bor
rows money from him, becoming hi
servant and slave, for "tho borrower is
servant of the lender." Kew York Timet.
HINTS FOR STRAWBERRY CULTURE.
No plaut from its earliness and the dc-!
licious flavor of its fruit offers greater in
ducements for its cultivation to the own-:
ers of modest, garden plots than tho
strawberry. The ground for a straw
berry plot ought, in reality, to be selected
a year in advance, and so liberally,
manured as to require no further npplica-!
tion at time of planting. By the clean,
cultivation of a hoed crop of some kind
the year preceding t'ie berry crop the.
ground will be brought into the best pos,
siblc condition, and will also be measur
ably free from the weeds and grass geu-!
crated in barnyard manure. This last is
nn important item, for grass is a difliculti
obstacle to contend with in strawberry!
beds. '
After the ground is broken up by plow
ing or spading and just before the pluuts
are set out it ought to be thoroughly'
raked over and pulverized.- This gives
the plants the start of any weeds that
might otherwise, have sprung up. Ashes
are often applied with decided benefit.
A deep, strong, sandy loam is considered
the best soil for strawberries. On new
land, where the original etcmcnts remain
unexhausted by cultivation, less fertiliz
ing is require;1, of course, thau on worn
lands. As to varieties no better udvico
can be given than to select such as have
proved well adapted to the soil and cli
mate of the section where they are to be
grown. Fortunately this is no difficult
matter, as there ure few, if any, districts
where one or moro successful cultivators
may not be fouud to give the desired in
formation and from whom plants for tho
first setting may be obtained at a com
paratively small cost.
Both fall nud spring plantings aro
practical, but in rigorous climates prefer
ence is given to the latter. For lurge,
plantings the rows should be three and a
half to four feet apart, with the plants
about twenty inches apart in the rows;
hut for garden culture tho rows may bo
nearer together. Space ought to be left be
tween matted rows for convenience ia
picking the fruit. Clip off the early run
ners until tho fruit has matured ; after
ward train them lengthwise of the rows
that the new plants may be within the
bounds of the row. This produces the
matted row, although luauy small grow
ers allow the whole space to be occupied
by the plants. Sea York World.
INCREASING TUE YIELD.
When income does not pay expenses,
means must be resorted to whereby cost
can bo reduced ; otherwise farmers will
soon be driven off their farms, l'reseut
average yield of crops in our whole
country can be cosily increased one-third
with little additional cost of production,
by more thorough aud intelligent prac
tice. To this end laud must be enriched
to support full crops; must be cleun from
all foul weeds aud grasses; must ho
drained of surplus moisture by uudcrdraius
if not naturally drained; pulverizution of
soil must be thorough, for seeding; and
for after-cultivation, to keep surface mel
low and to destroy all weeds; adapt crops
to soil ; seed to grass and clover, to lie in
sod two years out of live. No intelligent
farmer will attempt to raise winter
wheat nn a strictly muck soil, but will
luthcr plant corn, potatoes, turnips or
onions the latter being especially
adapted. Neither will Indian com be
planted ou heavy soil, for, however lull
iu plant-food, this laud will uot pro-lure
eu it at a profit; bill ut the same time
ihie in no bftter oU for wheat, jious or
ay. Corn finds its natural adaptation
f soil in a sandy gravel or loam of any
asc; a soil that will remain loose and
triable. The best class of grain lands
Ire not, as a nile, profitable grazing
lands, though stock-raising and feeding
thould bo made a branch by mixed hus
bandry (tho tmo system of improved
farming), together with a rotation of
rrops and seeding with clover frequently;
this adds manure to restore, fertility of
toil. '
No soil is so exclusively adapted to
yrnin-gtowing that a frequent seeding to
clover nnd otlier forago crops, to bo fed
!n the farm, will not be found most
profitable. Hands of the nbovo character
uc not well adapted to dairying, though
tnany modern teacher of improved farm
ing claim that the dairy may, by use of
silage, be profitably connected with
grain-farming on our best arable lands,
but it has not. been heretofore made a do
si rablo branch of mixed husbandry.
Dairying is best adapted to lands not
well suited to grain moist, springy land,
where water is everywhere convenient,
and where the pasture carries a vcrdurff
of green in the dryest season, has much
advantage over the farm without living
springs and whero water is obtained only
at great expense. Another fact is, bad
crop returns are not duo so often ns some
suppose to exhausted fertility, but many
times result from poor cultivation. A
perfect fining of the soil, and extirpation
of all noxious weeds, will do much to re
store productiveness to the "run-down"
farm. All lands based on a firm of tena
cious subsoil can bo greatly improved by
deeper plowing; a few inches of subsoil
turned up in autumn, whero tho pulver
izing effect of winter frosts may act upon
it, will wonderfully improvo tho land.
Raising clover to plow under is a means
of improving land in general; it cannot
bo relied upon for perfect fertility, yet is
a great renovator of the worn-down lands.
The growing of clover or other forage
crops for feeding on tho farm, also the
purchase of grain for feeding, with caro
iu saving manure, is the most reliable
source of fertility. Commercial fertiliz
ers may be used to increase crops, but
not to restore exhausted fertility. .Aei

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.
There is not only quicker money but
more of it iu hogs thau ia beef the hogs
mature so much sooner.
Cull flocks and herds as often at least
as once a year. It is quite as csseutial
ns trimming fruit trees.
Hens should be permitted to rango in
the pear nnd npplo orchards. It will
benefit the trees nud also the hens.
If tho rabbits bark tho young trees
wrap the latter with tarred paper which
also prevents tho borer from injuring
them.
Most vegetables can be improved by
care iu selecting only the best specimens
for seed, and growing them under favora
ble conditions.
Warming the stable nud keeping the
stock comfortable is better than wanning
it up once or twice a day by giving it
warm water to drink.
Corn and stalks fed together constitute
a better ration than either fed separately.
Nature knows better than man how to
combine food constituents.
Don't club a bull ; it only makes him
more ugly. If you must punish him use
a whip that will sting him. He will
mind that ten times quicker than he will
a club.
The man that puts i'on bits in his
horses' mouths in very cold weather,
without first warming the bits, has alto
gether too much of tho savage in his
composition.
The fence for a shelter and cast wind
for food do not make very fat stock, but
animals crowding around a straw stack
on a cold, stormy day do not faro much
better than this.
This is a good timo to thiuk of what
plants are to bo propogated and seeds
sown in your garden. Lists of these
should be made, aud pots, boxes, sund,
soil, etc., got ready before they ore
needed.
Don't fail to put a great deal of well
rotted manure on the garden and turn it
under. Remember that the more food
there is within reach of tho plant the
more it will consume, aud store up in its
fruit and leaves and stem.
It is unreasonable to expect hens to lay
in cold weather when you do not feed
them heating food nor try to shut out
dampness from their laying house. Show
us a damp house we will pick out roup
from the fowls and bud cases, too.
The most indispensable article of food
a chicken requires is water. Chickens
arc not particular, and would driuk the
water from a siuk or a sewer, but never
theless fresh, clean water is what they
should and must have at all times. It
has a wonderful influence on the egg
production.
Don't neglect to make a hot-bed and
start the cabbage, tomatoes, celery, pep
pers, cauliflower and flowers early. Tho
seedsmen's catalogues and the farm pa
pers tell how to make the hot-bed ; the
storm-sash on the house windows will
make splendid hot-bed 'sash, aud com
mon sense will teach you the rest.

The Emperor' Decoration.
A romantic story attaches to the new
decoration announced by the Knieror of
Japan in coiumcinorntion of Kmperor
Jimmu's coronation, 2550 years ago. The
distinguishing feature of the decoration
is a golden fish hawk. The legend is
that during Jimmu's conquest of enstcrn
Japan the sky one day became suddenly
dark, and a fish hawk of golden hue
settled on the Emperor's crossbow. The
bird threw off a brilliant light, by which
the enemy were dazzled and the Emperor's
forces were victorious.

Tho rcanon tho l?rown'a are so exempt from sickness is tho fact that
by an occasional courso of Dr. Tierce's Golden Alcdical Discovery they
keep their blood, which is tho fountain of life and strength, puro and
rich. In this way their systems aro fortified to ward oil attacks of fever,
and other dangerous diseases.
Those not so prudent, who have become sufferers from torpid liver,
biliousness, or " Liver Complaint," or from any of tho innumerable dis
eases caused by impure blood, will find the "CJolden .Medical Discovery"
a positivo remedy for such diseases.
Especially has the "Discovery " produced tho most marvelous cures
of all manner of Skin and Scalp diseases, Salt-rheum, Tetter, Eczema,
Erysipelas, and kindred diseases. Xvot less wonderful, have, been tho
cures effected by it in cases of " Fever-sores," " White Swellings," "Hip
joint Disease," ami old sores or ulcers. It arouses all tho excretory
organs into activity, thereby cleansing and purifying tho system, freeing
it from nil manner of blood-poisons, no matfer from what source they
have arisen.
" Golden JIedic.il Discovery " is tho only blood and liver medicine,
sold by druggists, under a jKtsitivo guarantee from its manufacturers,
of its benefiting or curing in cvwy case, or money paid for it will bo
returned. World's Dispknkary Medical Association, Manufacturers,
